La Reina Cafeteria - East Boston

Ordered: Sopa de ResZucchini Pupusa (Queso con Ayote Shrimp Pupusa (not on the menu Corona Modelo I ordered the Sopa de Res in the medium size since I was feeling a little under the weather and my boyfriend highly recommended it. It consisted of broth, beef, potatoes, cabbage, corn, and carrots. It was a perfect size and came with a side of rice, Pupusa, and a lime. It was hearty and surprisingly flavorful. My boyfriend ordered a Zucchini Pupusa and Shrimp Pupusa (that was not on the menu, but the kitchen was able to make it per his request . It came with a coleslaw-like side and sauce. After eating his meal and eating some of my sides, he was full. He rated both Pupusa's a 5/5. : Although we don't speak Spanish, it was easy to order and we enjoyed our time in the restaurant. It is a small and peaceful restaurant, the staff is very friendly and accommodating, and the prices are reasonable.

This small restaurant located on Bennington St. is really a hidden gem! I was in the area and craving pupusas and gave it a try and it was the best I 've had! There is many Salvadorian/Mexican restaurants in the area which I have given a chance and tried but by far this is the best! I went ahead and ordered antojitos la reina which brings a pupusa of your choice, taco of your choice as well as a tamal of your choice! It was amazing trying three things and they all tasted amazing!! I also got a horchata which was delicious! I will defiantly be coming back and also ordering take out

We had the super desayuño, two tamales (one corn and one chicken), as well as marañon and tamarind juice. It was all soooo good. I was missing costa rican food and it really hit the spot!

My first time to visit. I went on recommendation and they really delivered. The food was delicious and flavorful!

Delicious and reasonably priced breakfasts traditional Central American style! Highly recommend the chilaquiles and if you like chicharrón they're delicious, too. ?¡Buen provecho!
